Sánchez Error Leads To 7-Run Inning, Indians Drop Yanks
NEW YORK (AP) — Gary Sánchez failed to catch a foul popup that led to a seven-run fifth inning capped by Andrés Giménez’s three-run homer, and the Cleveland Indians routed the Yankees 11-3 on Saturday to drop New York out of a playoff position.
“Definitely a play there that I’m used to making, especially this year. I thought I’ve been very good catching those flies,” Sánchez said through a translator. “I think this is the first one I missed this year but just a bad read there with the fly ball.”
